[20s 30s 40s] Substance-Free Storm King Art Center Excursion

Details

OUR MISSION:
HYPS is for young adults who prefer in-person, substance-free, non-screen socializing. We are all about wholesome positive vibes, inclusivity & respect. Our meetups are substance-free, but members are not required to be substance-free outside of the meeting. Our group is targeted towards adults in their 20s 30s 40s, but all are welcome.

EVENT:
Join us for an excursion to Storm King Art Center in New Windsor!

"Storm King Art Center is a 500-acre outdoor museum located in New York’s Hudson Valley, where visitors experience large-scale sculpture and site-specific commissions under open sky. Since 1960, Storm King has been dedicated to stewarding the hills, meadows, and forests of its site and surrounding landscape. Building on the visionary thinking of its founders, Storm King supports artists and some of their most ambitious works. Changing exhibitions, programming, and seasons offer discoveries with every visit." (https://stormking.org/about/)

"Storm King’s grounds comprise varied terrain including rolling meadows, hills, wooded areas, paved paths, gravel paths, and mown lawn. For the best experience, wear good walking shoes and check the local weather report before you leave. Proper attire, including shoes and shirts, must be worn. The museum is a casual, family-oriented environment." (https://stormking.org/plan-your-visit/)

We will meet at 9.15 AM at parking lot / outside the ticket booth. The event is outdoors and will involve up to 6 miles of walking, so please dress and prepare for a hike. Please see the map (link here) - we plan to complete the full loop, which could take 3-4 hours depending on how long we look at each exhibit. We will try to stick together as a group, but it is okay to do your own thing if people are slow and you get bored & re-join when and if you would like to! I recommend bringing snacks/sandwiches & water, and depending on if people are interested we may go out for lunch after.
